Publisher's Synopsis
Aspen Cove, where sometimes the end is just the beginning...
Never-married, retired librarian Elsa Buchanan isn't known for subtlety; she's known for getting her way. Aging and in questionable health, she's worried her time for falling in love is overdue. Always up for a challenge, she sets her eyes on irascible Trenton Van der Veen, who is like a first-edition hardback book-quality through and through but showing a lifetime of wear and tear. Can she crack through his binding to enter his heart, or will she have to return him for a newer edition?
Real estate mogul Trenton Van der Veen isn't looking for love. After a long loveless marriage, he's happy to sit back and see what pops up. In Aspen Cove to sell several languishing properties, he's there for big bucks and quick sales, but what he finds is Elsa Buchanan, who's offered him a deal he can't refuse.
She's a high-end upgrade. He's a standard offering. Can they put aside their lifelong hurts for love, or will this be another relationship destined for the archives?
